Brasilia Bronze Chip Counts

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Shahin Over 300K

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Munir Shahin from Millbrae, California began his Day 2 with 27,925 in chips. He's since worked his way to nearly 11 times that amount, as he sits with a tad over 300,000 in his stack.

Just recently checking in on Shahin, he was in the small blind with a raise to 2,000 from middle position and a reraise from the button to 5,400 as the action in front of him. Shahin reraised to 14,900, and everyone folded.

As if to let everyone at the table know he wasn't just messing around with the big stack, Shahin showed the {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

Aoki Looking to Replicate Her Ladies Event Run

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Mikiyo Aoki was a virtual unknown in the poker world a few weeks ago. Her only recorded tournament cash was a third-place finish in a local Las Vegas casino for $2,109. She changed that with a second-place finish in the WSOP Ladies Event a few weeks ago, adding $94,800 to her bankroll. Aoki is looking to turn that into something even bigger here and recently took down a pot that moved her stack upwards of the 100,000-chip mark.

We got to her table with 37,000 in the pot and Aoki made a bet of 15,000. The flop showed {A-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts} and her opponent folded. Aoki, who started the day with just 27,000 in chips, would sit with 138,000 after the hand.

Rystadt on a Massive Rush

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Curtis Rystadt has been at Table 2 all day, so it was much to our surprise when we noticed him sitting with more than 340,000 before a recent pot.

A player in early position bet 5,000 on an {8-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop, and Rystadt raised to 11,000. The small blind cold-called, and the bettor folded. On the {7-Spades} turn, the small blind checked and Rystadt bet 12,500. His opponent tanked for a while before folding.

"You play a hand with me, I'm gonna make you play for your whole stack," Rystadt said with conviction.

According to David Bach, Rystadt was down to about 5,000 early in the day before doubling with {a-}{8-} against {k-}{k-}. Since then, the cards have clearly continued to fall Rystadt's way, as he's built up a monster stack.

Vamplew Sets Finger Trap

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

David Vamplew and Martin Finger had a decent staring contest over a recent pot. They played heads-up on a flop of {3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{9-Clubs} and Vamplew was the first to act. He bet 2,800.

Finger called and they saw the {q-Spades} turn. After some staring, Vamplew check-called 6,700 from Finger and then checked the river {q-Clubs}.

Finger checked and avoided the trap as Vamplew turned over {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

Johnson in the Depths

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

With the board reading {k-Spades}{5-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} on fourth street, Aaron Johnson was in a blind-versus-button battle and check-called 6,000. On the {4-Spades} river, Johnson checked again and his opponent bet 10,000. Johnson thought for a couple of minutes before tossing out a call, but he was shown {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for two pair and mucked.

David Farber raised from middle position, Annette Obrestad called on the button and Garrett Greer defended his big blind.

The flop came down {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} and action checked to Obrestad. She bet 3,700, Greer check-called, Farber check-raised to 11,500 and Obrestad reraised all in for 48,600. After Greer folded, Farber went into the tank for about 30 seconds before he called.

Farber: {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Obrestad: {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Obrestad was well out in front with a ten-high straight to Farber's overpair, but the {6-Spades} turn gave him a few outs to a full house.

Sure enough, the {J-Clubs} landed on the river, giving Farber jacks full of sixes to end Obrestad's Main Event.

Farber, meanwhile, is up to about 185,000.
